NVIDIA GTX 970 OWNERS THREAD

Motherboard on it's latest bios? If not, update and give that a try.
A big thank you. Never came across a GPU not working due to an old BIOS. The short version is it all works now.

Long version I was getting very stressed as the GPU didn’t even work in my other PC’s. Apart from the BIOS fixing the GPU I was very surprised at how much speed I gained just from the BIOS update. After the BISO update I ran 3Dmark with my old GPU just to make sure everything was ok and every single GPU test increased in score.
 
Guys if you have a low graphics score with 2 cards it's probably down to Windows 7

Windows 8 and 8.1 gives a boost.
 
Ive just done this but strangely the fan RPM is much lower now :confused:

At 100% fan speed the RPM is only 2300 (I think it was 4000+ on the old bios)

Is it the same for you? If not..any idea why its doing that for me mate?

cheers

I did say later on in the thread that because the Jetstream card has a better cooler with more fans you will have to run a custom fan profile on the standard card when running the Jetsreams BIOS.

Ive tried that but the fan is still really slow (and quiet) at 100%

does your fan go above 2300 RPM at 100% with the jetstream bios?
